Default 11.50 and quicker guys
I notice that there are guys that have trucks that are quicker than 11.50 but do not have roll cages. how are you guys getting away with that?

No, I consider Evadale (Ben Bruce Memorial raceway park) my track... HRP would likely be more strict on the rules... Evadale is a small backwoods track...

is this a 1/4 mile or 1/8 mile, and where is it ??? not that im running fast enough to need a cage, but always good to know where other tracks are at

Ben Bruce is in Evadale, TX... Its an IHRA 1/4 mile track... A few from the site have been out there... Blue5.3, v8, rfoster, myself... And others... Its a little less than 2hrs away from Houston. And generally speaking, its a well prepped/groomed/managed track and the lines go 100x faster than HRP....

It's about time for another trip out there Ben!!! I am ready to see how that truck of yours is running. I don't think I want a ride though, I would end up having to spend some more money that I don't have lol
